Kylian Mbappe said he was proud to leave Paris Saint-Germain with his “head held high” after winning Saturday’s French Cup final, but said he would wait for the right time to confirm where he will be playing next season.
“To finish with a trophy in a final, there is no better way. It feels really good,” Mbappe told reporters after PSG beat Lyon 2-1 in the final in the northern city of Lille.
Mbappe’s contract is now up, and he recently confirmed he would leave at the season’s end, with Real Madrid expected to be his next destination, even if neither he nor the Spanish giants have made any announcement.
“All I wanted was to end things well with my club, with a trophy. I think there is a time for everything, and I will announce my future club in good time,” he said. “I think it will be in a few days, so there is no problem. I don’t know when yet. There are still some details (to be sorted out), but the most important thing was to finish on a high here,” added Mbappe, who will team up in the coming days with the France squad to prepare for Euro 2024.
